Inside this will be a telephone wire con- necting with a transmitter and Jro- ceivers within the headpiece. The suit weighs 350 pounds, but the en- ormous water pressure reduces this to only 75 pounds on the ocean bed. To aid me in the task I ghall have another Invention of my own---one that will revolutionize the diving art. This is a deep-sea light, a glass globa half an inch thick, containing a 300 candle-power bulb. A series of these will be dropped on weights, enabling the diver to see perfectly over a radius of seven feet, The salvage ekip will be held over the sunken ship by six five-ton an- chors, and by electric detonation dy- namite charges will be used to forced open the strong rooms of the Lusi tania and Arable, so that we can get at the bar gold and other port. able treasure therein. The deepest salvaging done in seeking war treasure was the 126 feet at the mouth of the Saint Law- rence to the Empress of Ireland. Last Summer a little over $5,000,000 was €aved from the wreckage of the Alurentic in 76 feet off the Irish coast. Altogether "treasure to the value of $10,000,000,000 lies at the bottom of the sea as the result or wartime losses, and I shall be after the greater art of that if 1 live, Nine tenths of the sunken tress ure is at depths of less than 500 feet, Hood's I had been over two hours down there after having lost contact, and had I been pulled up a minute later than I was, it would have been the end of my diving days, What is the strangest coincidence I have known in deep-sea diving is another question I have been asked. I think it occurred when I was in charge of operations on the Pewabic on Lake Huron five years ago. With me was one of my assistants who had a brother of whom he had not heard for some years. We were roaming about the deck within the limits of our lamps when my com- »arion betrayed obvious signs of ex- citement on seeing the features of one of the dead men in one of the cabins, It was impossible, of course, for Us to carry on conversation at that depth; I could only gather that we were in face of something unusually grim, My companion was pulled up in response to his signal, and later I heard the secret. The body that he had found in that of all places was the brother he bad pot eeen for years. Later he was able to go down again and we drought the body up for decent burial, The papers still intact showed that his recognition was correct, but I think that must be the first ocea- sion on which two brothers who haa lost trace of each other should have met after death of one in this strange place.
